Hi All,
I was wondering if there are registered users here from the UAE? The RoC series kick-started my new collection and went crazy buying stuff when I went back home in the PH. They are a bit limited here. And hopefully they release the upcoming stuff at Toys R Us. Just wondering if I'm the only one collecting Joes here right now. (I feel alone... HEHEHE!) Thanks. |

I've been through the UAE, but that's about it. Welcome aboard!

I've stopped there about 25 times total over the last 17 years with the Navy, but I can't really see living there permanently.
I here the National bird for UAE is the Crane though... |

Visited twice while in the Navy, but like Night Viper, can't see living there permanently (though tbh that was sort of the feeling I was getting from talking to people there - everyone seemed to be from somewhere else!)
How hard is it to find Joe stuff? |

It's really limited. They don't have stand alone stores here that specializes in action figures and stuff. If the film didn't come out, I believe I would have never had a new collection. Right now they only have the RoC series. I already purchased all of the single carded figures. (which is 11 figures in total.) They have the Humvee, the Snake Trax Cycle, (which I have.) the Armored Panther, the Ice Dagger, the Rockslide ATAV, the Mole Pod and Night Raven at Toys R Us but it seems that no new stuff will be coming out. I was able to get lucky with a couple of 25th anniversary Major Bludd and Beach Head figures from the Virgin Record store at 30% off the price. Most of the stuff they sell here are WWE figures, Chap Mei and Chap Mei knock offs. (would you believe?) and whatever movie figure is out. I also checked out Ebay UAE and all the Selling and Bidding sites here, and it seems that no one is into these things here. Hehehe!
